502 Bad Gateway Error

I'm experiencing intermittent "502 Bad Gateway" errors on my website hosted with 3rd party hosting provider , [abcd.com]. Specifically, the site initially loads with a 502 error message through Cloudflare, showing "Host Error." However, when I refresh the page, it loads correctly on the second attempt.

This behavior suggests a possible issue with the server’s responsiveness or configuration. Here are the details:

Error Timing: The 502 error appears only on the first load attempt, then resolves on reload.
Error Details: Cloudflare indicates that the "Browser" and "Cloudflare" components are working, but the "Host" (i.e., the server hosting the site) shows an error.
